Hague Members

Members of The Hague Convention

The following countries are all members of the Hague Convention. These countries issue their own apostille and may request that you provide an apostille on your documents. Some of these countries still request further embassy legalisation but it is unusual.

Members of the Hague Convention issue and accept apostilles to simplify the legalisation and verification of documents between states. When a competent authority within a country issues the apostille no further authentication of the document should be required or requested. We do occasionally here that some organisations or companies within a state request further embassy attestation services but this is not required.

In the event that you are asked to provide more than an apostille on a document that is to be used in a member country we recommend that you direct them to this webpage of the HCCH documentation. If you require embassy attestation for any documents that are not detailed in the list below please contact the apostille service. We would be happy to provide you with the current processing procedure and service times for your documents.
